Det #20, 2130CS (USAFE), Athena AB, Greece

**Detachment 20, 2130th Communications Squadron (USAFE), Athena Air Base, Greece** Det #20, 2130th Communications Squadron was a United States Air Force unit assigned under United States Air Forces in Europe (USAFE), stationed at Athena Air Base, Greece, during the Cold War era. Established to support vital communications infrastructure, the detachment provided secure and reliable radio, telephone, and teletype services for USAF operations in southern Europe. The unit played a key role in facilitating command and control between higher headquarters and field units, ensuring NATO interoperability and readiness during a period of heightened tension with the Warsaw Pact. Det #20 was eventually inactivated or realigned as part of broader USAF restructuring and the reduction of American military presence in Greece in the late 20th century.
